ruth bader ginsburg went to harvard and columbia. she followed her husband. she went to columbia and she is one of the few people in history who were on two law reviews. steven briar went to stanford as an under graduate. elena kagan went to princeton and harvard law school. a part of the, it was -- and then they went from, they want to these prestigious law schools. and so it was part of the greater acceptance in the law school that helped the change -- helped bring about a decrease of anti-semetism in the legal profession. to end this on what's very interesting, when brandice's daughter and gilbert's mother graduated at the top of the class, brandice was very interested and she had hoped, at least the story i'm told, to go to harvard, yale, columbia. in 1917 there were no women admitted. they would love to admit her but it would be another ten years before they would admit women. she went to not a bad law school, university of chicago where she met her husband, another law student, but i think it's what she said as the decline of -- there was a gradual decl

in 1993 -- 4 bill clinton appoints ruth bader ginsburg to the court and a year later steven briar to the court and these were the two appointments bill clinton had. he appointed two jews. ruth bader -- none of these, they and elena kagan thereafter did not fake confront any anti-semitism either in their assents to the legal careers to the court or their religion was almost not mentioned in the hearings at all, the confirmation hearings. ruth bader ginsburg, whom we can talk about later did face obstacles of being a woman in the male profession that was predominantly male. when she entered law school in 19 56 she was the only one in the class of 500 and there's a lot to talk about here, and i don't want to get carried away now. the second woman after sandra day o'connor and the first jewish woman on the court. now, a year later steven briar who i am proud to say is a fellow longsman from san francisco. the only one to be on the court and the only san franciscan because old warren didn't live in san francisco, and he is appointed and both of them still serve on the court today. they're

ruth bader ginsburg went to harvard and yale. when her husband moved to new york to get a job, she went to columbia. she is only one of the two women in history who was on the columbia and harvard lar review. stephen breyer went to stanford as an undergraduate and harvard law school. elena kagan went to princeton and harvard law school. it does say a part of the culturization was that once again the decline of anti-semitism in the legal profession, it was lawrence, if you read about him in my book, led the anti-semitic opposition, the president of harvard, to brandeis' appointment and he later achieved more notoriety trying to introduce a quota on jewish admissions to harvard in the 1920s. but it was through these jewish students who grew up -- frankfurter, fortis and goldberg were first members of their family to go to college. then went from to all of these very prestigious law schools. so it was part of the greater acceptance in the -- in the law schools that helped the -- change -- helped bring about a decrease of anti-semiti

and senator moyahan said ruth bader ginsberg. why? because dean griswold, the long-time dean of harvard law school thinks she's very good. ( laughter ) and this is the dean that said i could not have a harvard law degree because i didn't stay there for my third year. >> reporteryear. >> rose: right. so many chance things occur in life and you don't know if they turn out to be good or bad. but this certainly was good. there was a celebration at the court of the 50th anniversary of the building, so the building was completed in 1935, and this was 1985. dean griswold was then solicitor general. he was to make a speech about great advocates before the court. and by 1985, he realizes that he can't have a list that's all men. so after he finishes with thurgood marshall, the next person he mentions is ruth bader ginsberg. >> rose: yes. when i went through my nomination process, i was told that everyone should have a marty ginsburg as a muse.

but i just talked last week in the chambers at the supreme court to justice ruth bader ginsburg. said to me that she would like to see more of a conversation between the court and the congress. justice breyer: it is hard to get a conversation going. charlie: but you understand what she means? justice breyer: absolutely, absolutely because sometimes you can find something in a statute -- say why did you -- she has written -- charlie: or had them think about in a dissent, which she had been -- the complexion of the congress had changed, but the newcomers, i think this was maybe -- i forgot the case. congress then changed the law because of what she pointed out in a dissent because there was a dialogue. justice breyer: i think that is good, but it is not easy to bring about. i worked in congress for a while. charlie: the judiciary committee with ted kennedy? justice breyer: yes. i would guess they are on different time frames. we take things slowly. the virtue of we are not elected. the virtue of having nine unelected people -- hamilton says this in federalist 78 -- they can take th

ruth bader ginsburg and and scalia, or ruth bader ginsburg and roberts don't agree on many things. but they agree that the president has a legal authority to issue that executive order and overruled all other judges. to your exact point, the narrative that donald trump is doing something that is so egregious and so anti-american is one that the mainstream media loves to say. because barack obama actually deported more individuals from our country than has ever been deported so far under president trump. that is not what the media wants to report. the media does not want to report the fact that this is the same rational policy that harry reid supports, immigration reform, that everybody says has to occur. regardless of their ideological spectrum. nobody wants to talk about that because it's much easier, with all due respect to harry reid, to go after donald trump, because that's what drives media ratings. and he's very good at ratings, in case you haven't noticed. that is why the media covers him that way. that's why, unfortunately, how they become profitable. i say this all the tim

what did i think it meant and john stephens and ruth bader ginsberg and several we thought of what it meant. in article one of the constitution, it gives to the congress the power to call up and regulate state militias. this was a lot of concern, if you read the federalist papers you will just get a feeling or it. >> rose: right. there was a lot of concern and fear that congress might do that and disband them and replace the state militias after they had disbanded them with a federal army, and that, many people said, vote no on the constitution because if they can do that, then the federal government can destroy your freedom. well, said madison, in a sense -- if i paraphrase him -- never fear. we will put in the constitution an amendment which says congress can't do that. it cannot call up and disband the state militiat. why? because a well-armed militia is necessary for the security of a free state, i.e. a state militia, therefore the right to keep and bear arms will not be infringed. in other words, that's what i thought they were talking about, which is not the right of an individu

talking bader journalist struggling to keep up on the doorsteps with this amazing energy. so this sunday before election day was in seven states. he just had more energy. hillary clinton relied on her surrogates i am not sure it was her health problems but they thought they had their bases covered. with joe biden and barack obama. but that did not connect to the voters the fact that trump was working so hard they did speak off the cuff for he was in would be next created that immediacy. it was fun at times to socialize and there were so many things that happened on the press plane also some tense moments are strict rules of what happens on the press plane i had a disagreement about what of my stories with the reaction to what he said isis said the reaction but i did not use anybody in quotations but it was back and forth so lot of stories to not make it into the book for that reason which is why it is off the record which is a shame because these narrative's are set among journalists as a significant amount is somebody miss something they need to cooperate with each other

melissa: i think you have pre-staged a line of arguments that justice ruth bader ginsburg authored.oe v.ously criticized wade reliance on the privacy doctrine and said the decision -- that we should have thought about abortion. essential tos women's equal citizenship, rather than cloaking it in the guides of privacy. that would have addressed the court issues at the heart of it. route would admit that roe v. wade was wrongly decided and that the original rationale was wrong. it would simply ignore a major state interest that the court has set exists. the states have an interest in maternal health, but has an interest in life of the unburned -- unborn child. that would ignore one state interest that the court has recognized since 1963. larkin on twitter makes this comment. the fact that they have to need -- use pseudonyms shows how difficult society treats women. case also a pseudonym? clark: yes. host: next is david. anotherthank you for great series by c-span. my question is, did the court at any point in time discuss when does life begin? i would like to know with both of your gue
